Cracked Heel

Crack formation in the heels is a serious foot problem that threatens the health of individuals. In the treatment of cracked heels, the support of a podologist is absolutely necessary. The inner parts of all cracks should be cleaned and a patient-specific treatment plan should be determined. In the treatment of cracked heels, the treatment will be successful with regular care, follow-up and regular use of appropriate products recommended by the specialist.
 
Among the causes of cracked heels are; insufficient humidity, pressures (orthopedic problems), old age, obesity, shoe selection, hygienic conditions, less water consumption and genetic factors.
 
While caring for cracked heels, the thick hyperkeatosis (callus) formed in the heel is wrapped in a stretch using special solutions and kept waiting. Softened heel cracks are cleaned mechanically with the help of scalpel or suitable milling cutters. After mechanical cleaning, peeling can be applied optionally. Finally, cream is applied and massage is applied.
